Widowmaker Posted September 17, 2009 Share Posted September 17, 2009 SO I have been playing with Repainting my Fallen Army for quite some time now. I finally have some stuff that is ready for show over here. First up is a Terminator Squad. They're about 90% finished - they need some more detailing done... chevrons, checks, and better Dark Angel Symbols... but they're good enough for the table. http://i150.photobucket.com/albums/s106/widowmakerphotos/Games%20Workshop/Warhammer%2040K/Chaos/Marines/Fallen/Fallen%20DeathWing/P1020908.jpg And individually http://i150.photobucket.com/albums/s106/widowmakerphotos/Games%20Workshop/Warhammer%2040K/Chaos/Marines/Fallen/Fallen%20DeathWing/P1020903.jpg http://i150.photobucket.com/albums/s106/widowmakerphotos/Games%20Workshop/Warhammer%2040K/Chaos/Marines/Fallen/Fallen%20DeathWing/P1020904.jpg http://i150.photobucket.com/albums/s106/widowmakerphotos/Games%20Workshop/Warhammer%2040K/Chaos/Marines/Fallen/Fallen%20DeathWing/P1020905.jpg http://i150.photobucket.com/albums/s106/widowmakerphotos/Games%20Workshop/Warhammer%2040K/Chaos/Marines/Fallen/Fallen%20DeathWing/P1020907.jpg http://i150.photobucket.com/albums/s106/widowmakerphotos/Games%20Workshop/Warhammer%2040K/Chaos/Marines/Fallen/Fallen%20DeathWing/P1020906.jpg This was where the idea started. But I'm not a fan of too much gold. I'm aiming at medium/high tabletop.

Brother Nihm Posted September 17, 2009 Share Posted September 17, 2009 Very nice WM! I really like the Heavy Flamer guy, nice use of spawn bits, GS and the Daemon Prince's head. :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/178772-the-fallen-are-rising/#findComment-2115113 Share on other sites More sharing options...
HVNSNTSOLDIER Posted September 17, 2009 Share Posted September 17, 2009 Really cool, love how they're all normal (well as normal as chaos can be), then suddently... BAM posessed terminator! LOL! The colorscheme was well done, and that purple skintone on the posessed is just amazing. How did you do it, simple drybrush, or wet on wet technique, or something else? Keep on trukkin' lad!

Widowmaker Posted September 17, 2009 Author Share Posted September 17, 2009 Thanks for the comments guys, I appreciate it. I have a couple more squads that will be posted soon... and I am working on a Chaos Lord... @ Nihm - Good eyes. You got most of the bits used... Also Oblit legs and Belakor's body. I'm trying to figure out a way of doing another similar one without using the same bits. We'll see how that goes. @hvnsntsoldier - I think that the purple was built up in layers of wet paint (I rarely drybrush cos I find it too hard to get the effects I imagine before I start) I think it started with a Codex Grey base for most of the flesh, and Chaos Black on the claw, building up layers with different mixes of Codex Grey and Warlock Purple. There might be a recipe in the WIP thread listed at the top. Keep the thoughts coming... any suggestions on how to improve?

ZONKEY Posted September 17, 2009 Share Posted September 17, 2009 Hello how did you build he scythes ? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/178772-the-fallen-are-rising/#findComment-2115417 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Widowmaker Posted September 17, 2009 Author Share Posted September 17, 2009 The scythes come from the Typhus model (I bought 6 back in the days of mail order). For the ones holding them one handed, I cut/filed/shaved the lower hand away, then green stuffed bandages/wrappings over the area to blend it in with the original. Since mail order is now defunct, you might want to try bitz sites. Alternatively, the WH ghoul/skeleton boxes have non-40k scythes (and then add guitar wire), or try building them out of Tyrannid arms (as I did with one of my daemon princes) Hope it helps.

WelshMullet Posted September 18, 2009 Share Posted September 18, 2009 Are fallen actually chaos then, or only some of them?

Widowmaker Posted September 18, 2009 Author Share Posted September 18, 2009 Thanks guys... I appreciate the comments. one thing i really like is the skull pauldrons on one of the termies in the first post - are they bitz from somewhere or greenstuff? Any skull pads on the termi's in either squad are straight out of the Chaos Terminator boxes. I can do some GSing, but I'm not that good yet :P Are fallen actually chaos then, or only some of them? LOL... that's a question for the ages. I dare you to go to the Dark Angel's forum and ask that question :nuke: I believe there are 4 lines of thought... 1. Yes, they are Chaos. 2. No... but they're not fighting for the Imperium either. They have seen through the lies of the Imperium and Lords of Terra, and are just out for themselves. 3. Perhaps... they may have been misled, but are now fighting for redemption 4. No, they are not, they have always been true to the Emperor, but were betrayed by Johnson who thought about joining Horus. And of course there are those Dark Angels who have turned traitor in recent times and "gone over to the Dark side"... but they are not classically known as "The Fallen" I think of my army as being under #2 (Think either the back story to Soul Drinkers, or recently a Heresy Era Army). They are slowly becoming more Chaos-y though as I add Oblits, Daemon Princes etc. Cheers Widowmaker Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/178772-the-fallen-are-rising/#findComment-2116686 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Widowmaker Posted September 22, 2009 Author Share Posted September 22, 2009 Alrighty... Squad 3. I'm working up some Chapter Symbols for them, but they are tabletop ready just now. Symbols should be done in time for a group shot. These are the work horse group... pretty much just standard Chaos Terminators. http://i150.photobucket.com/albums/s106/widowmakerphotos/Games%20Workshop/Warhammer%2040K/Chaos/Marines/Fallen/Fallen%20DeathWing/P1020897.jpg http://i150.photobucket.com/albums/s106/widowmakerphotos/Games%20Workshop/Warhammer%2040K/Chaos/Marines/Fallen/Fallen%20DeathWing/P1020898.jpg http://i150.photobucket.com/albums/s106/widowmakerphotos/Games%20Workshop/Warhammer%2040K/Chaos/Marines/Fallen/Fallen%20DeathWing/P1020899.jpg http://i150.photobucket.com/albums/s106/widowmakerphotos/Games%20Workshop/Warhammer%2040K/Chaos/Marines/Fallen/Fallen%20DeathWing/P1020901.jpg http://i150.photobucket.com/albums/s106/widowmakerphotos/Games%20Workshop/Warhammer%2040K/Chaos/Marines/Fallen/Fallen%20DeathWing/P1020902.jpg http://i150.photobucket.com/albums/s106/widowmakerphotos/Games%20Workshop/Warhammer%2040K/Chaos/Marines/Fallen/Fallen%20DeathWing/P1020900.jpg As always, comments and criticism welcome.

Terrahawk Posted September 23, 2009 Share Posted September 23, 2009 Really nice Fallen, great job! ;) This is exactly what a Fallen army should look like - menacing, independent and veterans of thousand battles. I'd be honoured to pit my Dark Angels against this army.

AdeptusDavidus Posted September 23, 2009 Share Posted September 23, 2009 What legs are those on the termi lord/champ (the one with the Chaos Knights halberd)? I browsed a couple of bits sites yesterday to try to figure out the source, 'cause they look fabulous. Are they from the Chaos Knights box as well?
